Regarding my posted question of 3/15/06 and following (Creating non-printing
pages in a Word document?): I emailed the document in question back to its
author, with the FilePrint macro neatly embedded, on Friday afternoon.
Unfortunately, Monday when I came in, I had an email from her stating that
when she tried to print, her system returned a message the macro was disabled
and the doc wouldn't print at all... 2 questions: (1)what could be the
reason (and the fix?), and (2)is this something that is likely to affect the
hundreds of people in 90+ remote locations who will be printing the doc from
the company intranet? All help appreciated!

IIRC this was my 'solution'. Unfortunately it is a macro-based solution and
requires macros to be enabled, There is no real easy way round this - if
your users have security set to High you can't use this solution. You could
digitally sign the code but they would still need to accept the
certificate - I'm afraid I'm not well up on this, perhaps someone else can
tell you more.

To add to what Tony says, it makes a lot more sense to have Macro Security
set at Medium, which gives users a choice of enabling or disabling macros.
Of course, if the user chooses to disable the macro, you're still in the
soup. The alternative is to save the document as a template and install it
in the user templates or workgroup templates folder. Provided users have
"Trust all installed templates and add-ins" checked (as it should be) on the
Trusted Sources tab of Tools | Macro | Security, then macros in templates
(as well as add-ins in Word's Startup folder) are automatically trusted.

okee-dokee, John...

I opened the doc per your instructions, saved it as a template, tried to
print, and of course the macro, which shows in the macro dialog box, was
disabled. My security setting is high, and the "trust all installed
templates and add-ins" box is checked.
What's next?

Please know, in responding, that only a simple "non-invasive" procedure will
work for the author of the document, as well as for the rank and file who'll
be printing it, no matter what I can do on my own system...

Thank you so much... (and my apologies to you, Suzanne, for getting your
name wrong!)

Regrettably, if it "wasn't" a template, it may not contain the macro code

Before you go any further can I try to clarify a little?

Firstly, I am assuming you don't want to get involved in digitally signing
your code - partly, at least, because it involves action on the part of your
users to accept the signature.

Now, from what I understand (and I have gone back to your original
thread) ---

- you have a single document
- it doesn't have a distinct template
- it is on an intranet location
- you want only page 2 to print
- you have a macro in the document to make this happen
- the macro doesn't run because users have (default) high security
settings

To allow the macro to run for users with default security settings
(including High security and "Trust all installed AddIns and Templates") you
can put the document in a trusted location.

The default trusted location is the User Templates folder ("(documents and
settings\userid)\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates"). To change it, or
add another one, is what you describe as "invasive" (requires user action)
so your only option is to put your code in this folder.

With all due respect to John, I think the template is a red herring. You can
put a document in a trusted location (including a 'templates' folder).

The user templates folder is not shared so each user will need a copy of the
document. This seems to me to conflict with the document being on your
intranet.

Over to you ...

a lie...)

You can then change the "Save as type" box to "Document Template".
If
you
do, Word will switch locations on you. THEN you will see the
Normal.dot
template suddenly appear. Go ahead and save your file now.

Regrettably, if it "wasn't" a template, it may not contain the macro
code
you hoped for, in which case, it may still not work. But that's the
next
problem: do this, and then let us know if it's working. If not,
we'll
tell
you what to do next.

Most of your assumptions are correct. In fact I now have (1) the original
doc with the macro, (2) the doc saved as a template, and (3) the template
saved as a new doc. All are on my personal hard drive at the moment, none are
yet posted on the intranet, but that is the goal.

From what you say, I gather that in order for the macro to work for end
users, the doc or the template must reside in a "trusted location" (Templates
folder) on each user's system? There is no "trusted location" folder within
the structure of the intranet, and without that, specific action (enabling
macros or accepting signatures) will be required on each user's part? Do I
understand?

Thanks for your patience - if nothing else, I'm getting the beginnings of an
eductaion!

"Tony Jollans" wrote:

Firstly, I am assuming you don't want to get involved in digitally signing
your code - partly, at least, because it involves action on the part of your
users to accept the signature.

Now, from what I understand (and I have gone back to your original
thread) ---

- you have a single document
- it doesn't have a distinct template
- it is on an intranet location
- you want only page 2 to print
- you have a macro in the document to make this happen
- the macro doesn't run because users have (default) high security
settings

To allow the macro to run for users with default security settings
(including High security and "Trust all installed AddIns and Templates") you
can put the document in a trusted location.

The default trusted location is the User Templates folder ("(documents and
settings\userid)\Application Data\Microsoft\Templates"). To change it, or
add another one, is what you describe as "invasive" (requires user action)
so your only option is to put your code in this folder.

With all due respect to John, I think the template is a red herring. You can
put a document in a trusted location (including a 'templates' folder).

The user templates folder is not shared so each user will need a copy of the
document. This seems to me to conflict with the document being on your
intranet.

Over to you ...

Hi Janice,

It is possible to have a trusted shared 'workgroup templates' folder -
although I don't know whether it can be an intranet location - but each user
must have their individual Word setup changed to point to it so it's no
easier than any of the other solutions.

I don't know what your setup is and the only way round this basic problem I
can think of is to use Policies but I don't have much knowledge of them.
